I was speaking with Eric, who mentioned about playing with an AFC to get my air fuel ratio better on normal unleaded. I get the occasional pink (detination) on normal, none on super.

 

I wanted to stay with unleaded, what with having a daily driver doing quite a few miles of motorway driving. Super seamed to cost too much.

 

I have thought of the AFC but realising that the AFC is probably going to cost £400 and each fill up on Super is £4 more I should stick to super... looking at it that's 100 fill ups, probably 3+ years worth.... darn why didn't I think of that earlier.

 

Thanks... you have made me answer my own questions!

 

Jez, you can get a Super AFC for $300 from turbo imports... thats about 200 quid ?

 

still makes over a years worth of fill ups though....

 

Okay £400 was a little excessive. This is what I calculate, yes I obviously have too much time on my hands...

300 miles to 60 litres = 22.7mpg/5mpl (worst case)

Super - Unleaded = 6p (until Blair screws it up even more)

10000 miles a year / 5mpl = 2000 litres a year

2000 litres * 6p = £120 per year

£308/£120 = 2.5 years of super!

 

Time for me to go and waste some fuel!....

 

Jez,

 

I say this in the nicest possible way as a dear personal friend of yours ...

 

GET A LIFE !!!!!!!

 

D

 

LOL !

 

Jez, what about raising the compression a little and go with diesel ? =)

 

Zya,

Eric

 

 

 

 

but a super afc will look so much better....

 

and a whole new toy to play with....

 

you know you want to :)

 

ok ok...

 

I would like to point out that both Hairsy and Craig are most correct. Time for me to start another thread and push this one down the forum out of sight!!!

 

ho ho.
